Résumé:
At the turn of the twentieth century numerous Canadian architects, artisans and artists set out to modify the esthetic and social environment through the integration of the arts. Painters produced murals; architects designed furniture; clubs formed to bring together writers, artists and architects; collectors and governments commissioned paintings, furnishings and sculpture for public and private buildings; photography rivaled painting; and crafts became applied design. Building on both the Beaux-Arts movement in France and the Arts and Crafts movement in Britain and the United States, Canadian art practitioners met the challenge of obtaining patronage - which had until then looked abroad - to create a unique aesthetic that shot through all aspects of daily life.

Helbling est le nouveau catalogue monographique de Guillaume Leblon. Conçu en étroite collaboration avec le graphiste Frédéric Teschner, il présente les quatre dernières années du travail de sculpture, d'installation et de dessin, et précise les développements les plus récents de la pratique de Guillaume Leblon. Le livre s'articule autour de quatre expositions monographiques récentes au travers desquelles Leblon a pu exercer toute l'inventivité et l'exigence formelle qui caractérisent l'œuvre qu'il construit depuis le début des années 2000 : Augmentation and Dispersion à Culturgest, Porto (2008) ; Site of Confluence au Mudam, Luxembourg (2009) ; Someone Knows Better Than Me au Grand Café, Centre d'Art Contemporain, Saint-Nazaire (2010) ; et Black Apple Falls à la Fondation d'Entreprise Ricard à Paris (2012).

Qu’est-ce que l’art moderniste ? Qu’estce que le mainstream, de Manet à Pollock ? D’où vient l’explosion de l’art américain d’après-guerre ? À quoi tient l’importance de Monet et de Cézanne aujourd’hui ? Y a-t-il une spécificité de la sculpture contemporaine ? Faut-il préférer l’art abstrait ? Que vaut la peinture française depuis 1945 ? Kandinsky, Rouault, Soutine, Chagall sont-ils surfaits ? Le cubisme est-il la grande révolution artistique du siècle passé ? C’est à ces questions que Greenberg répond dans Art et Culture : trente-huit articles – tous de circonstance – qui sont devenus autant de références pour la critique internationale. Parfois rigide et partial, mais toujours passionné et provocant, Art et Culture est un livre irremplaçable.

Résumé:
Melvin Charney (1935-2012) spent his career working on the border between art and architecture. His internationally celebrated art employed a variety of media including photography, montage, painting, sculpture, and temporary and permanent installations, relentlessly pursuing the meaning of architectural images in the age of mass communication. This volume includes a visual archive of over three hundred illustrations, many of which served as source material and inspiration for Charney's work, and set up a dialogue between his criticism and his landmark projects. Essays from architectural scholars provide critical assessments of Charney’s body of work as well as new perspectives on many of the key issues he grappled with and that have transformed architecture since the 1960s.

Résumé:
Accompanying the first US survey and largest exhibition to date dedicated to Thai artist Rirkrit Tiravanija, "Rirkrit Tiravanija: A LOT OF PEOPLE" traces four decades of Tiravanija’s multifaceted practice. Spanning rarely seen early works from the 1980s through recent projects, the publication covers Tiravanija’s experimentations with installation, film, works on paper, ephemera, sculpture and participatory works. Designed by Tiffany Malakooti, the publication features over 400 images as well as 23 newly commissioned texts. Longform essays by exhibition curators Ruba Katrib and Yasmil Raymond, as well as scholars Jörn Schafaff, David Teh and Mi You, dive into key aspects of Tiravanija’s work, providing historical context. These texts are complemented by 18 short reflections from artists, thinkers and collaborators who have been key interlocutors with Tiravanija over the years.

Résumé:
Over the last 50 years, Lebanese American artist Simone Fattal's (born 1942) multifaceted practice has explored the impact of displacement as well as the episteme of archeology and mythology, drawing from a range of sources including war narratives, landscape painting, ancient history and poetry. Inspired by her visit to the archeological sites of Pompeii, Fattal debuts a new body of sculpture and ceramics blending history with memory, grappling with the loss of time while revealing its repetitions. Says Fattal of Pompeii's significance, "the place has not been destroyed by time, but by a moment ... there are fragments of all periods mingled together ... Egypt is present, but also Syria and Asia Minor. But with all this diversity and differences, it seems that all lived together in harmony."

Résumé:
C’est le hasard qui a mis sur le chemin de Costantino Nivola, le peintre et architecte Le Corbusier dans une New York glaciale de l’hiver 1946. L’amitié, presque immédiate, qui naîtra alors dura vingt ans, jusqu’à la mort de Corbu en 1965. Ce volume présente un ensemble de textes inédits en français qui témoignent de cette amitié, mais aussi d’une proximité d’esprit ou d’une commune idée du monde qui outrepasse et renforce la relation entre le maître affirmé et son disciple indiscipliné. Placée sous le signe du soleil, l’amitié créatrice de Nivola et Le Corbusier révèle à la fois un aspect inédit du grand architecte controversé et revient sur la relation entre sculpture et architecture, au cœur de leurs réflexions respectives.
